Not you. You go immediately into full on shitty mode without hesitation.

Have a break - again. Have a word with yourself - again. You’re allowing your unpleasantness on the politics forum to invade the rest of your conversations. Nobody else on here does this, tho I don’t suppose that bothers you.

Seriously, Screwd.
Oh, you mean like this?

1. Calling people idiots
2. Calling people morons

Instant ban.... 7 days off.... Please remember the forum rules regarding personal insults. I've got enough going on in the RTTL world without that.

Your favourite PM ever quoted his most famous piece of prose when she won her first election, as I recall...

3D printed wax is actually a thing :D McLaren use it to print wax cores for casting cylinder heads for example. Cores which then get melted, come to think of it.
